AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

CVE‑2021‑1107

NVIDIA Linux kernel distributions contain a vulnerability in nvmap NVMAP_IOC_WRITE* paths, where improper access controls may lead to code execution, complete denial of service, and seriously compromised integrity of all system components.

7.8

AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

CVE‑2021‑1108

NVIDIA Linux kernel distributions contain a vulnerability in FuSa Capture (VI/ISP), where integer underflow due to lack of input validation may lead to complete denial of service, partial integrity, and serious confidentiality loss for all processes in the system.

7.3

AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:H

CVE‑2021‑1109

NVIDIA camera firmware contains a multistep, timing-related vulnerability where an unauthorized modification by camera resources may result in loss of data integrity or denial of service across several streams.

7.2

AV:L/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:H/A:H

CVE‑2021‑1110

NVIDIA Linux kernel distributions on Jetson Xavier contain a vulnerability in camera firmware where a user can change input data after validation, which may lead to complete denial of service and serious data corruption of all kernel components.

7.1

AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H

CVE‑2021‑1111

Bootloader contains a vulnerability in the NV3P server where any user with physical access through USB can trigger an incorrect bounds check, which may lead to buffer overflow, resulting in limited information disclosure, limited data integrity, and denial of service across all components.

6.7

AV:P/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:H

CVE‑2021‑1112

NVIDIA Linux kernel distributions contain a vulnerability in nvmap, where a null pointer dereference may lead to complete denial of service.

5.5

AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H

CVE‑2021‑1113

NVIDIA camera firmware contains a difficult-to-exploit vulnerability, where a highly privileged attacker can cause unauthorized modification to camera resources, which may result in complete denial of service and partial loss of data integrity for all clients.

4.7

AV:L/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:H

CVE‑2021‑1114

NVIDIA Linux kernel distributions contain a vulnerability in the kernel crypto node, where use after free may lead to complete denial of service.
